If you recreate pizza rolls next, you also need to figure out how to make the insides a coin toss between molten lava and pizza flavored ice cube.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

hahaha TRUTH

[@jo-fe9mb]

bon appetit at it again

[@johntoves9015]

The title is "Bri Breaks Physics"

[@scottm.603]

If Brian does pizza rolls, he somehow has to do a crossover with Red Letter Media. It's like, the law or something.

[@rocksfire4390]

what pizza rolls are you all eating? lmao, that never happens to me. you are either overloading the plate with them or putting too few in and doing it for the same time. you gotta have a time > pizza roll ratio, never trust the directions on the package....everyone's microwave is different (like our microwave is stupidly powerful so i put it on 50% power, spend a few mins getting it right and you will enjoy pizza rolls (and other things) without burning the inside of your mouth, throat and stomach. if you use a toaster oven or air fryer, it's easier honestly...still a need a time > food ratio and temp > food ratio as well.

[@alexclaxton143]

The recipe I didn't know I needed. Also congrats on crossing 1 million!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Thanks ALEX!

[@jacoboblanco1555]

Ooh nice! Just noticed. Congrats!!! So deserved.

[@ramon925]

The edition is so crisp, the tone is so fresh, the camera angles are perfect. And I love most of the vids aren’t even 10mins, yet thorough and clear. How isn’t this even viralER? 👏🏽 🎉 💯

[@SectionUT]

Bagel bites, toaster strudels, dunkaroos, hot pockets...the list goes on. The 90's, what a time to be alive 🤘🤘

[@samhill2655]

Good call on the hot pockets. I’ll bet Mr. Lagerstrom could put together some vv choice hot pockets. Would enjoy that video.

[@zacmackey]

1 freakin’ MILLION!!! Congrats! You absolutely deserve it.

[@armuk]

thanks

[@VoltaDoMar]

Those look like the best pizza bagel bites ever created

[@CB6028]

Love this recipe. As a fellow “kid who grew up in Chicago,” my favorite snack food was the classic Chicago pizza puff. It’s a staple of every Chicago hotdog and Italian beef joint, but you can’t get it anywhere else. If you could do a recipe to re-create that, it would be amazing

[@kattykakes8135]

Totally 💯💯

[@zackvirgo3597]

As someone who lives in the Chicago area, and grew up here, I had no idea they didn't sell them elsewhere. Like when I travel I usually go to fancy places but I never thought to check the local food stands

[@SimuLord]

I'm going to vote for this idea because I'm not from Chicago and have only ever passed through it on the way to somewhere else, but "pizza puff" instantly sounds like something I'd want to cook and eat. Make it happen, Brian!

[@fortysixand2]

@@SimuLord It's basically a Hot Pocket.

[@StoneOfYears]

My mom did something similar except she used pre-made English muffins. Topped them with sauce, veggies, and meat (sausage, pepperoni, etc.), put them in the over for about 15 minute and we had a great snack.

[@fnjesusfreak]

That was the first food I ever learned to make as a kid.

[@user-qu3tw3pu4g]

Hostess Fruit Pies back in the day were a thing of beauty (at least, to my childhood taste buds - now, not so sure). It was all about the glaze! I also ate my fair share of Pop-Tarts. I sense a theme here...

[@CubsWin2012]

Do a Stouffer's French Bread pizza. They were awesome in the '80s, not so good now, but maybe my tastes have just changed.

[@karatomlinson2549]

Just made these. So GOOOOD! Thank you

[@molly9732]

Yum! I’m totally making these for my kids. Love your channel, Brian! 👏🏼😁

[@stevenschiro1838]

This is great, nice job on another video. I need to start trying these.

[@shopgirl2959]

Love! ❤ so excited to make these. My kids are going to love them!!

[@zanderdejah7623]

Just made this, followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfectly. Was right back in the 90s playing zelda. Keep it up Bri!

[@someguynj]

A million dude! Congrats! Really like what you're creating.

[@f75gunslinger]

Great video as always , and these will be made at my house soon , Congrats on a million man ! Keep the awesome videos coming !

[@chefmitch13]

These look great. Totally making these tomorrow.

[@bigb773]

Thanks, Brian, for the awesome video! I'd love to see you make my favorite childhood breakfast, Toaster Strudels

[@_bane01]

you should totally tackle frozen taquitos next!!! pizza bagels and taquitos are some MAJOR flavors of my childhood.

[@WillCooper]

Will probably try a bunch of these, and see how they go from freezer to oven :) Your channel as re-ignited my love of cooking!! Thanks.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Awesoem thanks Will, let me know how they hit for you.

[@malcolmjenkinsjr]

Made them and froze them on a sheet tray lined with parchment and then vacuum sealed after they were frozen. From freezer to oven they were perfect at 450F for 15 minutes which is what the store bought version called for.

[@asugarholicslife]

They look so freaking good and I love the intro. It's very entertaining and something I strive for as well!

[@leslieanneDC]

Leveling up my 90’s school snacks!

[@azatooshort]

Friggin love all your videos. I don't even like cooking or baking or being in a kitchen but watching your videos have me running out to get all the ingredients to try these out for myself. Love to see your subs go up because it is very much deserved. Keep killin it mate 🤘🏽❤!

[@SylexYoutube]

i have been binge watching alot of your videos! thanks for making so much yummy recipes :)

[@killerjdog51]

Back in school we had these Italian Dunkers, which were like gooy cheese-filled bread logs with bubbly cheesy tops that you'd dunk in a similarly thick tomato sauce. Hands down the best school lunch food ever.

[@amartino8477]

Love this! Looks so good! Some of my favorites as an 80s/90s kid were cosmic brownies, dunkaroos, taquitos, French toast sticks, soft pretzels with nacho cheese, and those Flintstone Push up sherbet ice cream.

[@kathrynmoll86]

Hey, a MILLION subs! That's no surprise! The content says it all! The recipes are amazing!

[@phillipl2267]

The nostalgia hitting hard! Good on ya Bri!

[@davem257]

Hi Bri! Could you do German style Pretzels? The soft and chewy ones, not the snack. Love your videos

[@CubsWin2012]

Also Amish-style salted, soft pretzel wraps with egg, bacon and cheese filling. Tons of fat but delicious. And fresh strawberry ice cream shakes. Whatever you can order at an Amish food stand. Do it all. But also the German-style soft and chewy pretzels. Sorry for the tangent.

[@happytomeetyou.3027]

So true! That was the best moment in my life. I love this! Way to go Bri!

[@armagandeniz4988]

Hands down best cooking channel!!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Wow, thanks!

[@jordandupuis8978]

This recipe turned out awesome for me, almost too good because now everyone wants me to make them mini bagels! Thanks Brian!

[@BigHA1Rcut]

So excited to make this

[@ej_79]

Congrats on a million subs!

[@ciebriel79]

Would like to see him create a pizza pocket. that is still my favorite from my past.

[@Lucky32Luke]

Have you ever tried the Hungarian staple street food sold at many food stands in major events called "langos"? It is a yeast fermented fried dough topped with only a hint of garlic (garlic in oil and warm water brushed over when it is out from the oil) and sour cream and cheese. It is awesome. Similar to flat breads in shape but not really due to the nature of using sour dough. You surely should give it a go! As a Hungarian I can hardly imagine a better snack for an afternoon with friends around. My half British daughter loves it ever since I've made it for her.

[@theshelbypalace]

my fav treat!!! 🤣 this is fav video by you!

[@Taziod]

i've been watching your stuff for a bit and while it all looks good these look so damn good

[@frogmccuish]

Bri! Congrats on crossing the MILLION SUBS milestone! Nicely done... but I am not surprised. Great channel! Ive been watching you for quite a while, (30+k?) And I have loved ALL your recipes... Affer reading other comments. I would like to also place my votes for Toaster Strudels, Pop Tarts (chocolate Fudge) , Tacquitos, and large German Pretzels. Thanks Again Bri! ❤ Cant wait to see what you come up with next....

[@tashatopalakis2035]

Favorite Snack!! Thank you, Brian !!

[@pamyacuzzo6614]

Love, love, love this! And you!

[@jakobperkin7417]

this might be one of the most fun recipes videos I've seen in a while lol

[@brantleyhudson2892]

These look amazing! Two childhood favorites: I used to love the chex mix (you know the one) and I also loved the burritos that mom would bake

[@johncspine2787]

Homemade mix is actually good..butter, onion/garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, your favorite mix of cereals and nuts etc and bake on a tray..

[@sandijsmith8295]

I’m 54 and have never had a frozen pizza bagel. But as I make a lot of your recipes, that’s about to change. Thanks Bri! I’ll be trying these over the weekend.

[@CubsWin2012]

You've never picked up Bagel Bites? Delicious snack, even in the microwave, but not very healthy. Tends to cook unevenly in microwave so some parts are scorched and will burn your mouth. This video's homemade version is probably great.

[@dawatch65]

@@CubsWin2012 they're so addictive even though the sauce on them taste like ketchup water. it really blows my mind

[@elenachristian9860]

Can you even call yourself GENX if you didn't eat bagel bites, Tostinos pizzas and Hot Pockets?

[@trevorreniger5670]

Did we have the same childhood? 94? About 9 years old. Growing up in Michigan. Watching the Ducks and nom'n in some bagel bites? Ohhhh, the nostalgia. ❤

[@elainevaldez44]

Yum! They look amazing 😋

[@michaeld.4521]

Been with you since 40k. Well done!

[@johnvanantwerp2791]

I have that same bread knife--I love it!

[@wagen_blast]

This was the pizza video I didn’t know I needed! Bit of extra work for something that usually takes 60 seconds, but those looked amazing!

[@HotSauceStain]

Mind blown 🤯 glad it’s not a complicated recipe. Will try

[@zerosebunny]

thank you for the pizza bagel recipe brian, excited to make tiny bagels now ❤🍕🥯

[@bcal5962]

Great recipe Brian! Also love the 90's VHS nostalgia!

[@toko25]

Ya hit me right in the nostalgia feels Bri.

[@mavismounds]

Oh my... looks so good! My favorite childhood snack was homemade donuts. My mom would sprinkle them, with cinnamon and nutmeg.

[@davidshaw1405]

B-Dawg! Thanks for this, I made it today and the kids were stoked! I also made French dip this week at home and was wondering how you would go about it (future vid???)? In particular I'm curious how you would go about making the Au Jus, if not from a packet (which is what we did). Keep the amazing content coming, you are my favorite channel on KZbin. Shaw-dawg

[@karenhagenian8485]

Omg! Love this one! Will make for sure! Btw…nice cameo of your sister 😅

[@ladycyathea6287]

My favorite childhood snack was "Minnesota sushi" pickle, cream cheese, and some sort of cured meat (I usually used bologna, but that's not the only way)

[@MadameTeqi]

Speaking as a michigander I've had that too! It's really good with some green onion in there as a full stalk as well!

[@JohnSmith-cb9lr]

Way to take us to nostalgia town. I wanna live there, but I keep waking up. Thanks for the ride.

[@hellotheredoge]

I always enjoy your videos, but I've never clicked on a video so fast! I Love Bagel Bites!

[@karenfox1671]

My favourite sandwich last week and my favourite snack this week. My nephew could live on mini-bagels and, I can't wait to surprise him with these for his birthday! I'd love to see what you'd dream up for a veggie burger. Thanks so much!

[@k9kenny1]

Hey Bri.. love the channel and all the tips. My favorite childhood snack was always pizza rolls. And, I’m not too proud to admit I still buy them from time to time. Make those? Thanks!

[@dcast777]

You and I had very similar childhoods, bagel bites were amazing.

[@padders1068]

Hey Bri! Looks delicious! 🙂😋

[@xTheFly]

I legitimately don't know how you are not 300 or more lbs. All of the food you make is so damn awesome!

[@gabrho]

wonderful! Bagels are easy! so for me I loved macaroon cookies (flaked coconut + almond paste).

[@S1L3NTG4M3R]

Looks good... thanks

[@Beeplabeep]

The push and pull of the dough was... Mwuah, chefs kiss.

[@Mr.Pokeylope9082]

I'll have to try these. I did your hour bagels twice now and they're quite good. Try adding whole kumquats to your pizza sauce before blending. Probably 6-12 for that volume. Trust me.

[@CubsWin2012]

Not really a snack but a lifelong favorite of chipped beef on toast (stuff on a shingle). Incredibly basic but so good with cheap Buddig deli meat mixed into the gravy and topped with cracked pepper. Any kind of toast will work.

[@kattykakes8135]

Loved that!

[@CubsWin2012]

I guess you've kind of already covered it with the bechamel sauce in the Croque video. Not much else to do after that. Such a great, simple pleasure when put on toast and topped with black pepper.

[@duboisad]

Brian, really hoping you could tackle a childhood favorite of mine that has seemingly ceased to exist in the world as a whole. Schwan's (home food delivery for those who don't know) used to make a pizza wonton roll. It was the best thing on planet earth - pizza roll type filling in a crispy wonton wrapper. They stopped making them sometime in the late 2000s never to be seen again, but I would absolutely love to make them but I just don't have a clue how/where to start. You're the man, btw. Great channel.

[@lychenthrope]

Personally, I'd go to your Asian grocery and get some wonton papers. Put your toppings in there, pinch it closed with some water and deep fry.

[@zvezdoblyat]

Sounds like you know where to start? Get recipes for pizza roll fillings, and put that in a wonton wrapper. As to whether you fry or bake them, only you know. Good luck!

[@seanszarkowicz2910]

Thanks!

[@blakfloyd]

Mine was Keebler's Pizzarias chips. They were shaped like Doritos but were flour-based, not corn, so the chip was like the bowl of a taco salad. They were amazing and I'd be thrilled to see your take on them.

simplemente una locura! eso se ve demasiado bueno, saludos desde santo domingo

If you could recreate those Iltaco Pizza Puffs, you know the ones, that would be amazing. Maybe also those 'tamales' almost every hot dog spot in Chicago sells.

[@JB_Fraulein_Kunst]

Omg yes mighty ducks! ❤ I love that one of the kids became Foggy in the Daredevil series . These pizza bagels look so good and I wanna eat one right now. Defo making these soon. There's something about the nostalgia we get from food and childhood memories that makes it so special. Love making food from when I was younger sometimes

[@JB_Fraulein_Kunst]

Also I made a "healthy" bagel recipe this week and they tasted like ass. Never doing that again, I'd rather eat the bad stuff less often and enjoy it!

[@michaeljbuckley]

I never made the Daredevil/Mighty Duck Connection 💪

[@amigurumifriend4014]

YES Brian, you have a vid of how to make THIS recipe without a stand mixer, but PLEASEEEE show us how to convert recipes for when you don't have a stand mixer. That video will be the most helpful video of my life! I've searched the Internet high and low and have not found anything helpful on this 😭😭😭
